The clapping song

Shirley Ellis

Composed by: Lincoln Chase
3, 6, 9 
The goose drank wine 
The monkey chew tobacco on the streetcar line 
The line broke, the monkey got choked 
And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat

Clap pat - clap pat - clap pat - clap slap 
Clap pat! clap your hand... 
Pat it on your partner hand... right hand 
Clap pat! clap your hand... 
Cross it with your left arm 
Pat your partner left palm 
Clap pat! clap your hand... 
Pat your partner right palm 
And a right palm again
Clap slap! clap your hand... 
Slap your thigh and sing a little song go... 

My Mother told me 
If I was goody 
That she would buy me 
A rubber dolly 
My Auntie told her 
I'd kissed a soldier 
Now she won't buy me 
A rubber dolly 

3, 6, 9 
The goose drank wine 
The monkey chew tobacco on the streetcar line 
The line broke, the monkey got choked 
And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat

Clap clap! 
Clap your hands and prepare to pat
Clap! 
Take your right arm
Pat your partner palm with your right palm 

Clap! 
Take your hand back and clap 
Clap! 
Take your right arm 
Cross your right arm with your left arm 
Pat your partner left palm with your left palm 
Clap!
Now back with a clap 
Take your hand to your palm and slap your thigh 
And watch the fun materialize 
As you sing this little song: 

My Mother told me 
If I was goody 
That she would buy me 
A rubber dolly 
My Auntie told her 
I'd kissed a soldier 
Now she won't buy me 
A rubber dolly 

Clap!

Clap pat - clap pat - clap slap 
Clap pat! 
Clap pat - clap pat - clap slap
